Sheet Pan Zucchini Carrot Cake image

This sheet pan cake with zucchini, carrots, and coconut is incredibly moist since it is soaked with freshly squeezed orange juice right after baking. Make sure you squeeze out most of the liquid of the vegetables, otherwise the cake will get too moist.

Time 1h15m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup shredded coconut
6 teaspoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 ⅛ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 ¼ cups white sugar
4 teaspoons vanilla sugar
6 eggs
2 ¼ cups finely grated zucchini, excess moisture squeezed out
2 ¼ cups finely grated carrots, excess moisture squeezed out
4 tablespoons milk, or more as needed
1 large orange, juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a large, rimmed baking sheet with butter.
  • Combine flour, coconut, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  • Combine butter, sugar, and vanilla sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until very smooth and creamy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, and beating well after each addition. Fold in zucchini and carrots.
  • Stir in flour mixture alternately with milk until batter is well combined. Spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Pour orange juice over warm cake immediately after removing from the oven, so it can soak up the liquid.

This cake was a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if it had less sugar.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cake didn't turn out as I expected. It was a little too dry and the flavor was a bit bland.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as moist as I would have liked. I think I might have overbaked it.

This cake was a little too moist for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if it had been baked in a loaf pan instead of a sheet pan.

I'm not a big fan of carrot cake, but this recipe was surprisingly good. The zucchini really helped to balance out the sweetness of the carrots.
